Kalanchoe Thrisiflora Bronze Sculpture
Kalanchoe thyrsiflora 'Bronze Sculpture', also known as the Paddle Plant or Flapjack Plant, is a captivating succulent native to South Africa. This cultivar is highly prized for its large, flat, round leaves that boast a mesmerizing bronze-red hue, creating a dramatic and sculptural effect in any setting.
Appearance:
-
Leaves: Large, paddle-shaped leaves arranged in a compact rosette. The leaves display a stunning bronze or reddish-brown color, often with a subtle powdery coating that adds to their allure. The leaf margins may be tinged with green or yellow, particularly when grown in lower light conditions.
-
Size: This Kalanchoe can grow up to 12-18 inches tall and wide, making it suitable for containers or as a statement piece in a succulent garden.
